Abstract

Inspired by human visual perception, we demonstrate two novel wearable augmented reality displays. The first “Prescription AR” integrates prescription correction in a 5mm-thick image combiner. The static prototype is 50g and eyeglasses form factor. The second “Foveated AR” adapts to user gaze by adjusting the resolution and focal depth.
